VIOLATIONS DENIED. Former Louisiana State coach Jerry Stovall denied knowing of any violations cited by the NCAA in the school's football program. Twenty-two of the 26 infractions allegedly occurred while he was there. ''I read all 26 of them,'' he said. ''I wasn't aware of any of the allegations during my coaching career.'' The allegations included charges that players were helped to sell complimentary season tickets and that the coaching staff arranged a job for a prospective recruit during his senior year in high school. Stovall directed the football team from 1980 to 1983.
